Dumbest burglar on the planet!

Give this guy a Gold Medal in idiocy!

A burglar who stole his next-door neighbour’s net curtains was caught when he put them up in his own window, a court was told.

Jason Williams was jailed for two years and five months after admitting his fourth burglary.

The 38-year-old was rumbled when the neighbours went to his home and asked him why he had got their net curtains.

The crime was described as 'not very sophisticated' by the defendant’s own barrister.

Elizabeth Lowe, prosecuting, told the court the neighbour had moved out of the property and left only a few items inside.
Williams broke down boarding on the home in Slough, Berkshire, and stole the net curtains, tools, two glass ashtrays and some lamb steaks from the freezer.

Alastair Smith, defending, said that it had merely been an 'opportunistic' crime.
'The fact that this defendant went on to place the curtains in his own window shows a lack of sophistication and realisation of the seriousness of the offence,' he said.

'If he realised it could lead to three years in custody he might have taken more time to consider his actions.'
